The evidence-based Stay Strong, Stay Healthy (SSSH) program is designed to increase independent living older adults’ access to a safe, structured, and effective strength training program. Stay Strong, Stay Healthy- Level 2 is a follow-up to Level 1. It is for those who want to challenge themselves a bit more! Over eight weeks, participants learn exercises to improve strength, flexibility, and balance. At each session, a prescribed set of eight to 10 upper and lower body strengthening exercises are completed along with warm-up and cool-down stretches. To enroll in the Stay Strong, Stay Healthy–Level 2 program, we recommend you complete the Stay Strong, Stay Healthy-Level 1 program at least twice. Participants are made to feel comfortable and are encouraged to gradually build the strength beneficial to health. All equipment is provided.
